Acorns of Love

"Remembering that God does not measure time by man's calendar, that he is not in a hurry, we'll abide his time with assurance that eventually right will prevail. We'll plant acorns of love and watch the slow-growing oaks until time shall prove again that the law of the harvest is inexorable."
—Hugh B. Brown, Eternal Quest

I love this quote because it provides so much reassurance that nothing positive, or God-given, is wasted, everything is gathered, and everything is harvested, we just need to keep planting, especially those 'acorns of love'.

  1. Sarah,
    I, too, love that quote. We just talked about that in Relief Society Sunday..."No act of love is ever wasted." I totally believe that. Hey, I am looking for a quote from President Hinkley. It is my favorite from him about enjoying the journey. He uses a train as an analogy. DO you know that one or how I can find it? Thanks and have a glorious day! Shan
